The 2015-16 campaign was a season of ultimate, dramatic survival for Rotherham United as The Millers finished a critical 21st in the Championship, defying all expectations. After a turbulent year saw two managerial departures, the arrival of veteran manager Neil Warnock in February 2016 sparked a legendary fight for survival, which he himself later called one of his greatest achievements. Forward Matt Derbyshire led the scoring charts with 8 goals, proving crucial in the club's desperate but successful battle to remain in the second tier. It was a nervy, unforgettable year that showcased the club's enduring fighting spirit and remains a defining chapter in their modern history.
